My Current No. 1 Seeds
Midwest: Kansas Jayhawks
South: Syracuse Orange
East: Kentucky Wildcats
West: Duke Blue Devils

The first time I filed last night -- before the Duke vs. UNC game was truly over, although in some ways it already was over -- I had Kansas State out west as the No. 1. Now I have Duke there again.
